"I used to recommend TPT as a pleasant place to eat, with a good menu and friendly staff, but not since last visit when they refused to produce a printed lunch menu for a visually disabled customer who could not read the blackboard, and refused to run up a tab without taking my credit card and keeping it behind the bar, out of my sight, whereas a tab was offered on previous occasions. The bar/menu-order staff member was inflexible and unsympathetic to my friend 's inability to read the blackboard menu due to visual disability. I paid for my drinks separately, then paid in advance for our main course orders. With both of us over 60, we were unlikely to do a successful runner without paying, so I think a tab could have been safely offered. I later wrote to the TPT, with no reply, and then emailed them, again with no reply. I concluded that this means they have no consideration for their customers. Perhaps the staff member I spoke to was having a bad day, or was new and only following orders without any empathy for their customers. Perhaps there had been a change of management. Whatever the reason, I won 't be going there again, and nor will our many friends."

Expensive for school dinner food. It's a nice place for a drink, and the terrace is nice but alas, the food is awful.

Came here with my housemate on her recommendation, a top notch London pub, and the garden out back is such a beaut spot. Bargain 2 dishes off the lunch £8 menu and then a great Baba Ganoush with flatbreads to accompany. Really nice chaps behind the bar, a new local established! View menu

Lovely building, nice outside areas, good food, fabulous live music, etc. The only problem was that I ordered a round while my friend ordered a pizza and the bartender rapidly charged everything to my friend without even stating the total or checking with us! When she realised that there had been a mistake, her reply was, “Yeah… you didn’t specify…”

Took my friend out for lunch and we ordered “lunch special”. What we got was a watery shallow bowl of overcooked orzo bathing in very thin tomato sauce. I would not serve it to my dog. This used to be a nice neighbourhood spot, but it is my second awful meal there in a few weeks (the previous one was not a “special.” I shall not ever eat there again.

Very good food, welcome, service plus value for money. Our Sunday lunch pm experience was excellent. There were many families enjoying the food and atmosphere with a relaxed attitude to the many children at this time of the day weekend. Roast Beef had sold out, as a result Bavette steak available (and slightly cheaper). All other items available. Keep up the good cuisine and service. View menu

Went for drink after work, got there 22:55 as was a lot of people in front of me didn’t want to push so I waited to be told that is after last orders and they can’t serve. I finish my long shift and I get it but I was waiting long time for them to acknowledge me. I wanted my single gin and tonic but after barwoman eyeing me from bar and making me very uncomfortable, better that they were closed for tonight, after all of that didn’t want o stay. I live 3 mins away but I will find better place to have a drink after work. As single woman is not place to go. NOT WORTH IT!

Went to this pub earlier this week with my girlfriend and my daughter on my daughter's recommendation. Loved the look of the pub and the menu was great so I ordered the Asparagus and my daughter ordered a chicken salad, having first checked whether it coukd be done without onions as she has an intolerance. My asparagus was excellent but my daughter's salad arrived covered in onions. We sent it back but instead of accepting their mistake and preparing another dish they scraped off the majority of the onion and returned it. Fortunately she is intolerant rather than allergic but I struggle to understand why someone would deliberately risk making a customer ill rather than remake a salad. Will c...
